Reflecting...

Just thinkin'... Papa's hat...
On the road again...

Just want you to know the real reason for all the posts on this blog this week...I am trying to keep out of the refrigerator and working on photography is one of the best ways to keep me busy for a longer period of time. I am learning how to upload, download, clone, cut, resize, crop, lighten, brighten and smudge after the picture is taken.


I am trying to take pictures of moving objects...and Bryce is a close at hand for the summer. So he gets picked on alot. Just warning you all...I'm loving it and want to take some candid individual pics of each of my grandkids...and at least one picture each in bib overalls. I think there are enough in my closet to fit everyone of my grands. So you have been warned.


JC & Julie

A candid picture of Julie & JC...for those who haven't seen the happy couple. Yep, I did not get pictures of them last week-end. Just got busy with other things. Julie's birthday is August 30th.

New tractor drivers...

Always needing to haul something... Anali's first drive... Have a ride with me...
My turn to drive, Bryce!

Birthday tractor...for Virgil!



Just checking the seat on the new tractor... Andrew tried it...so did Virgil...but I didn't have the camera.
Ok, let's try a wagon for better pedaling...
And now to train Bryce on maintenance...

walking...and looking...and clicking the shutter...

Love the old bike... and dead trees...
One of the horses came up to the fence to great us... There are a few wild flowers...
This tree reminds me of the many graftings of the olive tree...

And irrigation...

Until later.... Enjoy what surrounds you.
